Critical? So the 100s of millions of pregnant women out there working nko? There own pregnancy no Critical abi? There own no need support and love that is why they are out there working abi? undecided

Stop making up silly excuses for pregnant women. Pregnancy no be sickness. undecided

You keep on insisting pregnancy is not a sickness, have you been pregnant before? Seeing women working while being pregnant does not mean it's not a horrible combination. Note that not all pregnancies are the same. Some come with intense sickness such as Hyperemesis gravidarum, sciatica, etc. If she was already working before becoming pregnant, it would have been different. Finding a job as a pregnant person will obviously be difficult. Her performance will obviously slack. Do you know how many sick leaves she will take just to accommodate the pregnancy? Men should try and educate themselves about pregnancy biko instead of just being mere sperm donors.

The OP should talk to his wife and make sure she is really fine as per health wise, support her as much as he can. Allow her to put to bed safely and then when the baby is 6months let her get enrolled in an online masters course. If she is not a career person, then that is the lot he has picked seeing as these are discussions they would have had initially. I believe marriage burdens should be carried equally, hopefully she is an understanding woman who can get past her comfort zone to advance her family. Apply Wisdom OP.

Teach her your work-from-home job instead of the Masters first. When she don dey work from home, and she don dey bring some cash in from the work, she fit decide to do the Masters. Get people wey just prefer work-from-home jobs, your wife is one of them. No push too much pressure into her, make she no go........

Please guys ignore the grammar, I need urgent advice because I am dying slowly towards my wife altitude.

I am a young guy working from home and I try all my best to make my wife happy always but there is one attitude in her which I am not comfortable with and I don't know how else to explain to her after I have tried so much for her to start up something.

She is a graduate with good result but she does not want to do anything rather she prefers staying at home maybe because I am working from home. My problem now is that she is pregnant and she got admission for her masters in one of the Eastern Universities while we live in lagos which she does not want to go and owning to the fact that she is not doing anything in the house and she is not working, I really want her to go for that masters and is causing big issues between two of us.

Please kindly advice me on what to do.
Baba let her carry the pregnancy first, pregnancy disturbs SOME women.
You want her to be traveling from lagos to East with her big belle?

Op...I can deduce from your post that you need some space, you're tired of seeing her at home 24/7, so you are pushing her to go out and start something.

But has it occurred to you that your wife (just like me) may not be the type of person that likes doing business? Well...at least offline.

I'm sure she will prefer office work, but the problem as you said is that all the interview she attended has not yielded any results... actually, the fact that she attends interviews is proof that she really wants to work.

As for travelling to the East for Masters, I can bet you that the reason she doesn't want to go is because she's pregnant...she can't imagine carrying pregnancy & running around for lectures at the same time.

I have a feeling that your wife is introverted, and doesn't like stressing herself much...if so, then she's very much like me.

My advice is this, since the normal office work she desires is not forthcoming, you can introduce her to the concept of remote work.

In this day and age, she can work as an admin assistant, teacher, call center agent, writer remotely.

All she needs is to get the requisite skills.

One thing I'm sure of is that there must be something that your wife enjoys doing.

If you identify her interest, she can be trained and offer her services remotely.

I believe you guys dated for some few months before you decided to tie the knot.... Now, she has turned into a full blown house wife who is now a Zee World specialist because you failed to define the marital responsibilities.

Talk with her one more time, and if she refuse to do anything to support her home, bring it to the notice of her parents and possibly, her “Daddy” in the Lord.


Now, on a lighter note; It may seem as though you really want her to go out for some hours so you can import some young blood to keep you company.... grin

Right on the mark! As long as men continue to condone lazy, unmotivated women who are jobless and make wives of them, they'd continue to be shortchanged.

Stop shortchanging yourselves, men. She wouldn't be with you if you were jobless and unmotivated careerwise.

Demand same of these women. While you were dating, your woman never even for one date asked that you go out on a date that she funds or buys you gifts and you think it's normal? Why do you expect her to do better in marriage?

Wonder what kind of discussion both of you had before marriage.

1. You must understand that it's difficult for adults to change their mindsets, especially when these mindsets or ideology comes with incentives and comfortability or a medium that serves as an escape route.
True for women when they get married. They don't see the need for constant improvement because all they've wanted was to secure a man that will cater for their expenses through thick and thin despite their poor nature, bad attitude, amoebic body shape, damaged mentality, complacency, entitlement mentality etc.

2. Your wife's laziness is rooted in the comfortability you've placed her and to make her become productive you must upset that foundation. (She may however vacillates between changing for the better or seek another greener pasture for laziness).

How do you do these:

A. For the main time, pretend that your remote work is failing or has failed. Move from home early and daily to do your work outside and come back late like a normal job seeker. When you come back tell her the experiences you had when searching for a good job.

B. Reduce the amount of comfortability through the extra things you provide for the family. This will rhyme with your recent "joblessness".

C. Be the one that should start telling her to keep master's degree program aside because things are not as rosy before. (By the way, she doesn't need it, except otherwise). Because it's high time expenses must be managed.

D. Act broke with her and others and let it rhyme with the aforementioned.

On the extreme, if her unproductive nature hinges your prospect and progress tell her it's high time to cut off the relationship. She can't be enjoying life while doing nothing.

Enjoy your liability!

In summary, he should partially starve his wife, partially make her life miserable by reducing comfort.

And if all fails, he should divorce her right?

I think some of you don't even realise, but being a full time house wife is also a job on it own...Cooks ur food, sweep the house, mop, wash the bathrooms, take care of d kids etc.... that stuff takes at least 5 hours a day!....But Bros Fredamanda u won't understand all these until she starts doing another job & warming leftover foods consistently for a week, always tired to give u attention. That's when u will miss the house wife grin

Tell us what the truth really is. First, you said she has good grades and doesn't want to find work, she wants to stay at home all day, probably because you too is at home all day.
Now, you want her to go do masters degree at one of the Eastern universities.
Verdict.. you are bored being with her all day, you just want her out, you need your freedom! This is one thing females don't know about men. Men need their freedom at least once in a while, stay away from some time and the relationship will have a lift

My suggestion is find a small business even if it is online.. Buying and selling no need to rent a shop...until u can get her a shop or till she get a job.. Been pregnant is not jobless.

Also u can also get her tutorials videos for her to learn new skills online... From there she can be working from home..

It seems you do not know the value of woman you have in your abode.

You have a woman who loves staying at home, you want her out.

Whatever you are working at from home coach her so both of you can work from home and she can also work under you while you supervise from the top.

You get the drift.

Under no circumstances should you push her to go for masters under the pregnancy.



Best advice so far...

Master's in faraway city...
Who even chose the uni sef...

Lets be sincere, the only thing she can achieve with her masters degree is connecting with new set of people who can assist her get a job.

Masters degree is useless in nigeria today if u r getting it just to look for job.
Every firms n establishments in Nigeria today are concerned about experience not ur degree.
If u like have phd without corresponding

I think some of you don't even realise, but being a full time house wife is also a job on it own...Cooks ur food, sweep the house, mop, wash the bathrooms, take care of d kids etc.... that stuff takes at least 5 hours a day!....But Bros Fredamanda u won't understand all these until she starts doing another job & warming leftover foods consistently for a week, always tired to give u attention. That's when u will miss the house wife grin

1. ..."at least 5 hours...." you said. You are talking as if you you and the op's wife are the only married women on earth. Fine, the nature of the workplace is not structured for women because it is tough, rough and slippery and base on the female's psychology, it will take a whole lot of tweaking to get used to the terrain. But you must understand that:

A. The economic and political climate of the African Continent and world at large isn't conducive for "full time housewifemanship".

B. And we are in a political era were women are screaming equality and want to prove " what a man can do, a woman can do it more better ".
Therefore, you can't necessary blame anyone for allowing women into the workplace. At least it will make them have a first time experience in observing the tugs of war men fight in order to bring food to the table.

2. By the way, I can bet my balls that men will 100x more prefer to switch jobs with their full time house wives and will do much better if their wives are willing to enter the workplace.

You are talking as if you go to the market and cook everyday; mop everyday; wash and clean everyday. Men also involve themselves in taking care of the kids. If not for their jobs that take them away from their kids early and come back late from work, they do a better job in raising kids than women!

3. If you use 5-7 hours in a day to do the normal housework at your own convenience and do school runs, what then happen to the remaining 19-17 hours?
Remember: most men are hustlers, even the few office workers that stay in the office from 8am-4pm and above, do their works under pressure, bootlicking their bosses and clients so as to secure their jobs. The other men who are in the majority, stay under the sun, or inside the inconvenience of their cubicles or migrate from one road to another in search of clients or customers. And you think it is easy and comparable to full time housewifemanship right?

4. You women already see men as your retirement plan, no wonder each and everyone of you is bothered about marriage, and when it's not forthcoming, you all caterwauls from dawn to dusk, running helter skelter from pillar to post; fry pan to fire! And yet when you eventually secure a (beta) husband rather than behave yourselves and act accordingly, you start whining and murmuring about house chores because you all have entitlement mentality rooted in yourselves.
You are not willing to transcend, but settle down for mediocrity and expect a reasonable man or human being to take you seriously. You all don't want to grow and improve because a man is already there to clean your asse$ and mop your shits.

5. The op wants his wife to be productive, a good plan from a good man indeed! Yet, you and the wife don't see the need because of women's lackadaisical attitude and complacency, but later will start yelling and screaming equality and feminists bullsh!ts.

6. Is there anything wrong for a woman to run a small business of her own to support her husband? Is there anything wrong if the woman learns her husband's kind of work in order to support him? What if the man die, how is she going to run family affairs?

Hahahahaha! You want to do 5hours work everyday, then after, spread your legs wide to watch TV, gossip and browse the internet during the day, and serve a stale boring sex at night.

7. You women should learn to grow up. I understand your natural tendencies, limitations and psychology, but despite that, growth and development is necessary for every individual, both male and female.

With these few points of mine, I hope you get my point.

Have a nice day!

They don't see the need for constant improvement because all they've wanted was to secure a man that will cater for their expenses through thick and thin despite their poor nature, bad attitude, amoebic body shape, damaged mentality, complacency, entitlement mentality etc.

2. Your wife's laziness is rooted in the comfortability you've placed her and to make her become productive you must upset that foundation. (She may however vacillates between changing for the better or seek another greener pasture for laziness).

How do you do these:

A. For the main time, pretend that your remote work is failing or has failed. Move from home early and daily to do your work outside and come back late like a normal job seeker. When you come back tell her the experiences you had when searching for a good job.

B. Reduce the amount of comfortability through the extra things you provide for the family. This will rhyme with your recent "joblessness".

C. Be the one that should start telling her to keep master's degree program aside because things are not as rosy before. (By the way, she doesn't need it, except otherwise). Because it's high time expenses must be managed.

D. Act broke with her and others and let it rhyme with the aforementioned.

On the extreme, if her unproductive nature hinges your prospect and progress tell her it's high time to cut off the relationship. She can't be enjoying life while doing nothing.

Enjoy your liability!
Uncle u just nailed it but I'm sorry that u wasted your advice on a simp, on a guy that has no guts and boldness to confront his wife.

CaveAdullam:


1. ..."at least 5 hours...." you said. You are talking as if you you and the op's wife are the only married women on earth. Fine, the nature of the workplace is not structured for women because it is tough, rough and slippery and base on the female's psychology, it will take a whole lot of tweaking to get used to the terrain. But you must understand that:

A. The economic and political climate of the African Continent and world at large isn't conducive for "full time housewifemanship".

B. And we are in a political era were women are screaming equality and want to prove " what a man can do, a woman can do it more better ".
Therefore, you can't necessary blame anyone for allowing women into the workplace. At least it will make them have a first time experience in observing the tugs of war men fight in order to bring food to the table.

2. By the way, I can bet my balls that men will 100x more prefer to switch jobs with their full time house wives and will do much better if their wives are willing to enter the workplace.

You are talking as if you go to the market and cook everyday; mop everyday; wash and clean everyday. Men also involve themselves in taking care of the kids. If not for their jobs that take them away from their kids early and come back late from work, they do a better job in raising kids than women!

3. If you use 5-7 hours in a day to do the normal housework at your own convenience and do school runs, what then happen to the remaining 19-17 hours?
Remember: most men are hustlers, even the few office workers that stay in the office from 8am-4pm and above, do their works under pressure, bootlicking their bosses and clients so as to secure their jobs. The other men who are in the majority, stay under the sun, or inside the inconvenience of their cubicles or migrate from one road to another in search of clients or customers. And you think it is easy and comparable to full time housewifemanship right?

4. You women already see men as your retirement plan, no wonder each and everyone of you is bothered about marriage, and when it's not forthcoming, you all caterwauls from dawn to dusk, running helter skelter from pillar to post; fry pan to fire! And yet when you eventually secure a (beta) husband rather than behave yourselves and act accordingly, you start whining and murmuring about house chores because you all have entitlement mentality rooted in yourselves.
You are not willing to transcend, but settle down for mediocrity and expect a reasonable man or human being to take you seriously. You all don't want to grow and improve because a man is already there to clean your asse$ and mop your shits.

5. The op wants his wife to be productive, a good plan from a good man indeed! Yet, you and the wife don't see the need because of women's lackadaisical attitude and complacency, but later will start yelling and screaming equality and feminists bullsh!ts.

6. Is there anything wrong for a woman to run a small business of her own to support her husband? Is there anything wrong if the woman learns her husband's kind of work in order to support him? What if the man die, how is she going to run family affairs?

Hahahahaha! You want to do 5hours work everyday, then after, spread your legs wide to watch TV, gossip and browse the internet during the day, and serve a stale boring sex at night.

7. You women should learn to grow up. I understand your natural tendencies, limitations and psychology, but despite that, growth and development is necessary for every individual, both male and female.

With these few points of mine, I hope you get my point.

Have a nice day!

@emmanuelbrown26, you will like this too; it tastes like colostrum mixed with vanilla.

Thanks.

Fredamanda:
Please guys ignore the grammar, I need urgent advice because I am dying slowly towards my wife altitude.

I am a young guy working from home and I try all my best to make my wife happy always but there is one attitude in her which I am not comfortable with and I don't know how else to explain to her after I have tried so much for her to start up something.

She is a graduate with good result but she does not want to do anything rather she prefers staying at home maybe because I am working from home. My problem now is that she is pregnant and she got admission for her masters in one of the Eastern Universities while we live in lagos which she does not want to go and owning to the fact that she is not doing anything in the house and she is not working, I really want her to go for that masters and is causing big issues between two of us.

Please kindly advice me on what to do.

Marry ambitious, independent lady....Una no gree say feminism this and that.

Manage her. You be negroe so na your type be that.
